    <p>So I am quite new to WPF and thought that as a learning experience I would implement a simple level editor in WPF. The purpose of the editor is 2-fold. First I want to be able to define arbitrary oriented bounding boxes as the "solid" area in the level. I then want to be able to place, resize, skew images.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ODzet.png" alt="polygon editor image"></p> <p>I have implemented the ability to draw oriented bounding boxes using a Canvas (See image above). The Canvas and a toolbar are within a dock panel. I am now planning to implement the image capabilities. What I thought to do is create another Canvas layer (perhaps many) for each layer of images. The reason for doing so is that I can easily restrict selection and visibility of each layer. However I am not sure how to properly layer multiple canvas controls. Certainly the DockPanel container I am currently using doesn't let me have multiple controls on top of one another. I thought to embed my Canvas layers within another canvas but I am no sure how to properly set this up (note that the setup should be dynamic in code as I would like to allow users to add more layers as necessary). </p> <p>The ideal end result would be an arbitrary number of layers that have a transparent background (so we can see the layers behind) and which can be easily hidden. There would also only be 1 layer at a time receiving the user input.</p> <p>So my question is, is their a more appropriate approach rather than layering canvases? If layering of canvases is a good method could someone provide links/example code for how this can be setup. What is the optimal container for multiple stacked controls (note the child canvas size should match the parent container).</p> <p>Cheers!</p>

    1. COYou're definitely on the right track? Why don't you get started and see if you have a more specific question?

    2. COI suppose the question is about whether I am on the right track or not. I have started. I implemented the first portion which allows me to draw the OBBs. Once I reached the next portion I started to wonder whether the approach was correct.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
